Anyone here ever work with a DIY screen frame and velvet?

It just hit me this morning that with the screen as large as I am going, and with velvet in a max width of about 60", I am going to need to put some sort of seem on at least the top and bottom of the screen frame since they will be around 120"... I don't want to buy 11 feet of velvet at about $15 a foot just to throw most of it away but have seems only in the corners....

Ideas?

I guess I could try to go "borderless" on the screen, since it is going to be on a false wall that is going to have black GOM or some other black acoustical fabric. Let the false wall be the frame...

Just looking for ideas or options.

Thanks.
